J.R. Simplot was born into wealth and power in the Amarr Empire, where he quickly rose through the ranks of corporate life, excelling in high-level negotiations and military contracting. By the age of 30, he was a top executive within a major Amarr corporation. However, frustrated by the constraints of corporate life and the Amarr Empire’s politics, Simplot left it all behind to become a Capsuleer.

Now an independent operator, Simplot applies his business and military expertise to mercenary work, corporate espionage, and resource acquisition. Known for his strategic mind and ability to broker high-stakes deals, he operates a diverse fleet, including Caldari and Amarr ships, and offers his services to the highest bidder. His long-term goal is to establish a powerful, independent mercenary faction, free from the control of any empire or corporation.

Simplot’s flagship, the Sentinel, is a heavily-modified Apoc-class battleship, and he continues to expand his influence across New Eden, building alliances and accumulating wealth.
